Re: AK, meh..
Why do you fold with no bet to you on the river? Its also a bad call on the turn.

Re: AK, meh..
What implied odds? Lots of times we hit an overcard to pair on the river, it won't be good. Implied odds means we are winning if we hit and not losing anything when we don't. Problem is, we're often going to lose when an A or K falls.
For example, say we hit an A and decide to raise, are we folding to a 3-bet? What about when opponent folds to our raise? In these situations I tend to just call when I hit my overcard as the opponent will often check a scare card that might beat him, but bet when it doesn't hurt him. Likewise, I don't want to get 3-bet, and he may well fold to my raise if I have him beat anyway. |

Re: AK, meh..
If I called and hit an Ace or a King on the river I'd bet out, the implied odds would be the ineviatable calls I'd recieve from any worse hands.

Re: AK, meh..
You give him 3 outs. Doesn't that mean that he's only good half the time he hits?
